Growing up with a mom who (still!) is a server, I've been fortunate she's a great one. If she were not a good though... my family would be screwed. Sure, my dad (a chef!) makes a decent amount of money, but my mom's tips account for most of our income. I'm glad she can make so much, but I hate that just a few rude tables or a slow week could completely screw her and my family over. It has it's benefits, but for all the servers out there, it certainly isn't it worth it.
